Definitions
- the present disclosure relates to an induction heating cooker that may electrically figure out whether a main body and a lid are normally coupled.
- an electric cooker is comprised of a main body and a lid.
- the lid is coupled to the main body, and seals the inside of the cooker. Heating and cooking operations of the cooker are performed in a state in which the inside of the cooker is sealed.
- FIG. 1 is a view illustrating a method of sensing locking of a lid of an electric rice cooker of the related art.
- FIG. 1 is excerpted from the drawing ( FIG. 3 ) in Prior Art Document 1 and illustrates an entire structure of a locking ring for sensing locking of a lid. Some of the reference numerals in FIG. 1 may differ from the reference numerals in Prior Art Document 1.
- a magnetic member 110' is installed on one side of a locking ring 100' that is swivably mounted onto the inside of the lid of the rice cooker, that is swiveled by a handle installed on the outside of the lid, and that locks or unlocks a main body and the lid of the rice cooker.
- the magnetic member 110' is comprised of a plate-type bracket 111' extending in a circular center direction of the locking ring 100' at one side of an inner circumferential surface of the locking ring 100', a magnet 112' mounted onto an upper surface of the bracket 111', and a hook 113' allowing the magnet 112' to be coupled to the bracket 111'.
- a reed switch is installed near the magnetic member 110' and is operated by magnetic properties of the magnet 112'. Specifically, when the locking ring 100' is swiveled in one direction and then the lid is locked, the reed switch is connected by the magnetic properties of the magnet 112', and, when the locking ring 100' is swiveled in the other direction and then the lid is unlocked, the reed switch is not affected by the magnetic properties of the magnet 112' and is unconnected.
- a controller in Prior Art Document 1 is electrically connected with the reed switch and, on the basis of whether the reed switch is connected, determines locking of the lid.
- an additional component (the magnetic member 110' and the reed switch) for sensing locking of the lid has to be installed in the rice cooker, thereby requiring an additional installation space and causing an increase in production costs of the rice cooker.
